What dj trivia does

DJ Trivia, LLC is a privately held entertainment company that delivers live, DJ-hosted trivia games at bars, restaurants, private events, and fundraisers across the United States. The core product centers on a live host displaying trivia questions on TV screens at venues, covering categories such as Movies, History, Music, TV, and Science, with players forming teams in a recurring weekly format designed to drive venue attendance and repeat visits on typically slow nights.

The company generates revenue through three streams: recurring venue subscriptions paid by bars and restaurants on a monthly cadence, one-time private event bookings for fundraisers and corporate gatherings, and merchandise sales via an online Swag Shop. Its go-to-market is primarily direct, with venue owners and DJs reached through the company website and contact inquiries, supplemented by organic social presence on Facebook and Instagram. The pricing model is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, reflecting a negotiated SMB sales motion.

DJ Trivia has built out a broader product ecosystem around the core trivia night, including a Clue of the Day engagement program (Sunday through Thursday), a Submit a Question crowdsourcing portal, a Secret E-Bonus email subscription, a DJ Trivia Cruise variant for maritime venues, and a related DJ Bingo sub-brand. The company holds registered trademarks on both DJ Trivia® and DJ Bingo®, and is headquartered in Cleveland, Georgia, with no disclosed institutional funding or parent company.
